Social Phobia (Social Anxiety Disorder)

This video covers the basic signs and symptoms of S.A.D...as well as some treatment options. I personally do not know anyone who suffers from this disorder, but i know that, like all other disorders, it can be a crippling experience. Please seek help if the described signs apply to you, or to someone you know. If you have any questions then please go ahead and ask, i will do my best to answer them. The song in the intro is "Overburdened" by Disturbed, from the Ten Thousand Fists album. Thanks for watching, and enjoy!

When I was younger I used to be more outgoing as I aged and I Got older I moved to different state . And moved to a different environment . I was kinda of badass growning up . My grades weren't that good in middle school . So I start focusing more on my books and school work . I took honors and advances classes . Did well improved alot But I moved to different environment and I was less outgoing . Didn't really have that much friends .

@raccuia1 Yup...I don't think I'll tell my parents about it...maybe after they get a divorce and things settle down. Maybe....but can't it go away or something?

@JapaneseAnya No u cant cure this urself. You need to get to a doctor immediately. If u try to struugle alone it wont work and time will pass. The doctor will send u to a psychologist where u will learn cognotive/behavioural therapy. Most times it will help you cope better and lead you to not avoid the situations

Holy Cow!!! I just figured out I have a small form of S.A.D......

Thats why I acted the way I did! EUREKA!!!!!!!!

At least I'm not naturally weird; I'm sick!

And there's no way my parents are finding out....is there anyway I could cure it by myself?
